A vehicle surrounding image display device according to the present invention combines an image obtained by reducing in size an image taken by a camera provided at the center of the rear side of a vehicle, and images obtained by deforming images taken by cameras provided at the left and right sides of the vehicle such that the outward inclination of the inner side in the vehicle width direction of each of the left and right side images is gradually increased toward the lower end of the inner side. The vehicle surrounding image display device then generates a single image simulating the circumstances behind the user's own vehicle as observed from a single virtual viewpoint in a realistic form, and displays the generated image on a display device.
